TypeConverter should trim before conversion to things that are not Strings
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-3666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3666
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Value Stack
Affects Versions: 2.2.1.1
Environment: Standard Struts2 implementation with Jetty
Reporter: adam brin
Priority: Minor
For a simple struts2 application, when you pass in parameters that are not
"Strings" for example Longs or Enums the Xwork2 TypeConverter (and Struts2's
handling) needs some work.
Issues:
* numeric values are not properly parsed if they have space characters
* enum values are not properly parsed if they have space characters
* ideally some exception would bubble back up in the form of an ActionError
Attached (in comments) is a simple controller and test case using HTMLUnit to
demonstrate the issue. Even with the following logger settings, no errors are
visible:
{noformat}log4j.logger.org.apache.struts2=TRACE
log4j.logger.com.opensymphony.xwork2=TRACE
{noformat}
